make check hangs in ./common when built on AIX.
get_max_fds() returns MAX_INT32 rather than a sensible number
This patch may help! i.e., someone may want to review the order of the
comparisons made - or the result will probably always be 20.

I am not sure whether this patch is the best for all platforms.
For now I install a fix that detects INT32_MAX and returns 256 then. May it be
that AIX does not use a fixed size structure? In this case it would be usable
to know whether there is a way to get information on the highest fd currently in
use.

to repeat when i have more time.

AIX defaults to "unlimited" descriptors. However, the value may be overridden by
setting the hard limit. In tcsh, for example, one can work around the issue with:
limit descriptors 4096
limit -h descriptors 4096
